All enrolled matriculated students, and all students living in University of Washington residence halls or single-student apartments, are required to provide proof of measles (rubeola) immunity. Students will not be allowed to register for any classes until the Hall Health Primary Care Center confirms that they have satisfied this requirement.
Students born before 01/01/57 are considered to be immune to measles and therefore do NOT need to submit proof of immunity.
Students must complete the top portion of the student health center's Measles Immunity Verification form and provide either: Certification by their health care provider on the bottom of the form; OR Attach copies of original immunization records; OR Attach a statement on letterhead stationery from their health care provider as proof of:
In the event of a measles outbreak on the campus, students who have not previously submitted proof of immunity to measles will be barred from classes, living groups, and other campus activities until health officials determine that there is no risk of them transmitting the disease to others.
Measles Immunity Verification forms are available at the Registration Office at 225 Schmitz Hall and from the Hall Health Primary Care Center. They also may be downloaded from Hall Health's website at hallhealth.washington.edu or by clicking on the link (above) on this page.
Students who have questions or concerns about the measles immunity requirement are encouraged to contact the Immunization Clinic at Hall Health well in advance of their registration date.
